The economic challenges faced by the Province over the past two years has created a climate where educational organizations and their partners appear to be more open, at all levels, to wrestling with the difficult questions and challenges raised in Mr. Perrin’s report. The Ministry is to be commended for seizing this opportunity to engage in what are sometimes difficult conversations as we look for better ways to use the available resources to achieve the goals outlined in The Saskatchewan Plan for Growth and the Education Strategic Sector Plan (ESSP). As we review the options presented by Mr. Perrins and consider the implications for students, teachers and communities, our first priority remains the students of Lloydminster and our capacity to move forward with a focus on the goals established in the Education Strategic Sector Plan (ESSP).
